Chapter 60
Two hours later.
“Trista, am I such a mean person in your eyes? Why don’t we go to the stores LV, Dior and Gucci? Look where you are! Children’s clothing stores!”
“I like that.”
I glanced at tens of thousands of children’s clothes and tens of thousands of school supplies
“Trista, this is not a good place to rip me off. How about I take you to a more interesting place and let you do what you want?”
“Are you TAKING ME TO bed?” I asked the saleswoman to pack up all the things and send them to the welfare house. Then i raised her eyes and said, “I have bought everything I want, I’ll go first!”
“So soon? One day is not over yet!” He caught up with her in a hurry. “This is City N. You do not know the way. Have dinner with me. Afterwards, I’ll drive you back.”
“No, thank you.” I put my hand on his chest and touch it gently.
He said excitedly, “Trista…. Why are you so active all of a sudden?”
I did not say anything. I just raised the corners of my mouth.
“It’s nice here, but there are too many people. How about…. Let us go someplace else?” His breath sputtered in uncontrollable excitement in my ears.
Before he could finish his words, I pulled out a wallet from the inside pocket of his shirt and took out a few pieces of cash. “Thank you very much for Mr. Paddy’s fare. I am going to leave now.”
When I got home, the first thing I did was confess to Donald. “Donald, I have something to explain to you today….”
Although the news of the confession with the fire balloon has not reached the media for the time being, it is better that I am honest with him than that Donald misunderstands me in the future.
In the study, Donald lifted his head from the document and said, “I blocked the news for you. Aren’t you having fun and came back so early?”
I didn’t expect that not only did he not get angry, but he cared about my mood!
“You know everything?” I was so surprised that I didn’t tell the truth. “Then…. you are not angry?”
“I am just jealous. It’s no big deal to be angry.” He smiled slightly, and the smile at the corners of his mouth was beautiful and charming. “You are my wife. How could I be angry with you?”
I am a little touched. Such a considerate and caring husband. How much virtue I accumulated in my previous life to meet him in this life.
….
Sylvia’s pov
In the morning, when I flushed the toilet, the door was pushed open.
“I heard that the new head of the jewelry design department has been replaced. She is a little girl who has only been here for less than half a month. I don’t know who is supporting her behind her back. She has been smooth all the way. Her life seems to have gone off the rails.”
“That’s right. If things continue like this, she will definitely become chairman and put herself on a par with the elders!”
“Why? We are just ordinary employees. Why did she become a director so quickly?”
“Oh, I am so lucky! We have no choice but to listen to fate!”
….
After they washed their hands, I proceeded to clean the toilet.
It seemed that the other departments had different opinions about Trista’s promotion. Mr. Donald did not know what was going through his mind. How could he give such an important position to a rookie who knew nothing! I don’t know when I can leave after cleaning the toilet!
Actually, Trista was a good girl, but she was too honest and kind-hearted to expose Kirk as soon as she entered the job interview
The assistant director of the planning department, the director of the marketing department, and Lily from the human resources department were all fired from the group
It doesn’t matter if he fire anyone else. It’s mostly because of Kirk – he’s my old lover. It’s because of him that I became vice minister. That’s why I took out all my anger on Trista when Kirk was expelled.
“Don’t worry about it. Brenda took the blame. Mr. Donald didn’t find out anything about me.”
Suddenly, the door of the bathroom is pushed open by another woman. Judging from her voice, I can tell that the person who spoke is an employee of the same department – Oprah.
“I was going to set Trista up, but I did not count on her not showing up for work last night, so Brenda took her place. Brenda is usually careless and inconsiderate, and her personality helped a lot. Actually, I have you to thank. Lately we are too short of money, so I can work with you to solve my urgent problem. Speaking of which, you have not given me the rest of the reward yet.”
“….”
I was stunned. Had the jewelry design department lost the design drawing yesterday because of Oprah?
“Have you transferred the money? I haven’t received it yet. Please wait for a moment. I have received it. Mr. Zachary is a man of his word. If you need anything in the future, just call me. I did well the first time, and then I did well the second time. Please go on with your work. I will not bother you any further.”
Oprah hung up the phone and was about to leave when I went out to stop her. “It turns out you are the mole.”
Dumbfounded, she asked, “Ms. Sylvia, why are you here?”
Perhaps Oprah had not expected anyone to be in the bathroom, so she was a little afraid of being caught in the act, but he tried his best to calm down. “When did Ms. Sylvia come in? Why have not I seen her?”
“It seems you do not remember my current position.” I saw it and grinned, “I was cleaning the toilet. You were too happy to notice me.”
“So you heard the whole conversation earlier?” She clutched her phone, her face pale.
“Almost.”
She took a few deep breaths, knowing that no matter how hard she tried to hide it, it was useless. So she just showed it openly, “Yes, I took the design drawing of cg20. Does not Ms. Sylvia think that Trista is troublesome? She quickly replaced Ms. Emma’s position shortly after she came here. Many colleagues were fired from the group because of her. If this continues, is Ms. Sylvia sure you can return to her original post?”
“It is my own business whether I can return or not,” I corrected.
“No, it’s the whole department’s business.” She clasped her hands in front of her chest and walked toward me step by step. “As long as she’s in the department, we run the risk of being fired at any time. We do not know if we will not be stabbed by a knife one day. To protect us, I have to do something like this. I am doing it for the good of everyone!”
“I think you want to take this opportunity to make some profit and see if you have a chance to replace Trista as director. Don’t be so haughty and self-righteous. I know what you are thinking about.” I am going to expose her.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
She smiled weakly. “Have not you ever thought of replacing Emma? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as Trista is down, are you afraid that you will not be able to be the section leader?”
“Even if I want to sit, I have to do it with my true abilities! Unlike some young people who are sneaky and incompetent and want to rule the world!”
“So you want to be my enemy and reveal it to the public?”
“Yes.” “I will not forget how you treated me. You flattered Emma and stomped on me behind my back. Do not you think I know that?”
“A good man chooses a tree to live in. I did not do anything wrong, just like you always like to flatter others. We are the same kind of people.” She said sarcastically.
I clenched my fists and glared at her.
“I advise you to think it over. Think about the pros and cons. If Trista is kicked out of the group, the jewelry design department will be your world. Without her, Mr. Donald will certainly see your merits.”
She was voicing what was going through my mind right now.
I did not say anything. I felt Trista’s promotion was a little unfair.
I have worked in the jewelry design department for so many years and have contributed greatly. But Mr. Donald just can not see my merit!
“Sylvia, how long are you going to wash in this dark place? How long has Trista not come to inspect your sanitation work? Does she really report your sanitary conditions to Mr. Donald every day?” Oprah reached out and casually wiped the table. With a faint smile, said, “You are so clean. If Trista was willing to put in a good word for you, you would have already returned to work. You don’t need to be scorned here.”
I was shocked by her words.
